The main problem is that the guy blends into the BG at the moment because the green and the blue are too close to each other in terms of colour. If you want to keep the colours the same, I'd bump up the saturation of the guy's suit to make him pop out of the picture more.Slow going, but I've been getting the base colors and color scheme plotted out. NGL I'm thinking of mixing the hills' and Leader's suit colors for the sky as the night sky does need to offset and contrast the rest of the colors, but I'm worried it might fuck the picture up.View attachment 2346774 Thoughts? Besides doing a flip because I'm surprisingly bad at this, I mean.![]()
Stuff does look a little pale now that you mention it, even for just the base. I can go back in and make the trees more green as well, if that would help define the colors and individual shapes. Maybe add a bit of gouache?The main problem is that the guy blends into the BG at the moment because the green and the blue are too close to each other in terms of colour.

I did use marker, but professional ones, not magic marker. Thank you very much, I will absolutely do my best at practicing my lines!Savage it is.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that the second picture is done with watercolor, not magic marker. You need straighter lines; here is a tutorial on how to get them. Second is perspective and proportion. The chair looks tiny in proportion to the table and patio, and none of the (vertical) lines in the picture converge on a vanishing point. Finally, unless you're painting a comic book or stylized illustration, the outlines need to be hidden. I suggest using a 2H pencil to get lighter lines that are easier to cover up with watercolor.
You're welcome!Thank you so much, I mean it! Its surprisingly difficult getting any constructive criticism, and I hate ass pats. So this is absolutely amazing to finally hear!
That's what I hate about working on tablets (and computers in general.) The finished art looks great when it's reduced in size, but viewed at its original size you start to notice lots of dead space.
